You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
Creating a rescue email address requires supplying two of the answers. They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

HT5699 I don't have access to my rescue email and I forgot my security questions. I'm in Egypt now, apple support over the phone is not available here.

I've lost my rescue email and I forgot my security questions. I am located in Egypt now so there's no phone technical support here. I cannot activate the imessage or facetime and cannot download anything from the appstore. I need to reset my appleid password.

If you can't remember the answers to the security questions, then go to Express Lane and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox).
More info, like the rescue email address

How can I change my rescue email address to retrieve my security question answers?

Help me! I try to download songs from my phone and a message keeps popping up saying since this is my first time downloading from this device I need to verify my identity by answering my security questions. It's not the first time I've downloaded music from my phone and I can't send my questions to my rescue email because I dont remember whose email address it is. How do I change it?

You need to either answer your security questions or remember your rescue email address to check it. Afte that you will need to contact Apple account security to reset your password (after proving you are who you say you are).

How do you get a rescue email without knowing your security questions

Hey, So I know this sounds pretty stupid at first, but let me explain a bit; I made my apple Id on my I Pod Touch, and it asked me to make security questions (in which I made two, this is where the "fun" begins), however it didn't ask me to make a rescue email as that was going to just be my E-mail account and the link to change the security passwords isn't appearing, and as such I now am stuck: with two security questions that I don't remember the answers too and I don't have the option to send the info I need to my e-mail account, If you can help me; that would be apreciated

HT5312 How can I get a rescue email sent?

I am trying to access my answers to my security questions by trying to send a rescue email. However, the option to send one is not available. What do I do to access my answers??

You will only have the reset link if you have a rescue email address on your account, if you don't have one (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

So I set up the account maybe seven years ago? I don't remember the answers to the security questions, but I'd really like them sent to me. Why isn't the 'rescue' email sending?

I don't have a rescue email and I forgot my security question + answers.

I recently just bought a mac and I tried to download pages for school but it required me to put in my answers to the security questions to which I don't remember. I clicked "Forgot your answers" and I didn't get anything in my email. It turns out that I don't have a "rescue" email and I don't know what to do. I have a $100 on the account and I can't even use it.
